Tony Akins

Early in his career, Tony got to know what winning feels like. He was working on a great IBM® project with weekly iterations and demos, and the team finished a nine-month mainframe project in seven months. Tony has always acted as a coach—sometimes for the company where he worked and sometimes for clients. He knows that when you make small commitments, live with them and create trust, then you’re free to do a lot of things well. A career highlight for Tony was helping a team put the fundamentals in place, (after a terrible demo with an unhappy customer) and stun the customer with quality work and a quick turnaround. His LinkedIn profile has all his bona fides.
